Walter Gunz began his career as a department manager at Karstadt and in 1979 founded Media Markt, now Europe's largest consumer electronics giant. With his motto that trust produces quality and joy and recognition lead to successful action, he led his once 22,000 satisfied employees. "You mustn't try to grind people down to size, then they become smaller and smaller" - the loss of individuality leads to joyless employees, because success can only be achieved "if you do something completely and with conviction". Today, the philosophy graduate deals with the big questions in life - love, faith and hope - and published the book "The Gift" in 2017. For him, material wealth is not important and he is convinced that money and success are no guarantee of love, happiness or health. In his talks, he inspires and delights his audience with a wealth of ideas and his own success story. He encourages people to make decisions in order to actively shape the future.
